Constant hacking is pretty much why phpbb and phpNuke (both owned the forum world) died almost over night. And why VBulletin rose to power.

The open source phpbb and phpnuke are fairly secure in the latest build to my knowledge.

phpNuke is an old system that no one has used since the 90s I never understood people who STILL install it, lol.

You guys are just angry that they have a couple of Team Fortress 2 themes:


Speaking of gaming themes and clan boards:

Perfect example of an epic uber fail.

That is like taking a model A ford, and putting a ford pinto body on it.

At around 12 months I will either close the forum, let the domain name expire and walk away. Or, convert to VBulletin and renew the domain name.

The next forum I open - which I hope is no time soon - will probably use MYBB. I have used SMF on and off for about 4 years. In my opinion, the SMF project is dying. In the past few years there have been no major changes to the code. ReCaptcha is still an add-on modification, the permissions are still confusing, the templates are still hard to work with,,,,.

I know one thing for sure - the people that use MYBB seem to be pretty loyal to it. And they are that way for a reason.

PHPNuke was one of the most popular CMSs on the market - but that was 8 - 9 years ago. It spurred a whole bunch of clones, such as PostNuke, and PNForum. The postnuke project has changed its name and pretty much disappeared.

For about a year I use MDPro, which was another PHPNuke/PostNuke clone. It did the job pretty good, but there are lots of other solutions out there.

vBulletin ftw. As you can see, its what the FF boards use. Also, I use it for my work, the AE clan uses it (w/ the vba front end extension), and my WoW clan uses it, (also w/ the vba extension).


I've yet to find something as COMPLETE as vB+vBa. The only thing it doesn't do is my dishes and laundry.. but maybe the upcoming, totally revamped vB4.0 will (Already pre-ordered that shit too)
